unrequitted love

Yesterday night, I got really upset. I have been receiving unwanted attention from a certain somebody, and I didn't enjoy it, cos everytime he talked to me on msn, I got really upset. I dunno why, but my blood really boiled each time he probed me on certain stuff. After a very serious exchange of opinions about marriage and r/s that involved me falling in love with non-christian guys, I really felt like my privacy was intruded by his senseless tactlessness and totally didn't see eye to eye with his views about marriage as just a word.
Marriage to most people, is not just a word, but a social contract between two people and it requires them to be committed to each other and love each other through life, death, illness and poverty. IMHO, love is to accept a person just the way he is. To accept his past, his good, his bad, his everything. I dun believe that love can change a person's bad habits. Change only occurs when a person is determined to stop repeating the things that are bringing about harm and unhappiness to him and the people around him.
As cliched as it may sound, that was what i learnt in church and i adhere these meanings to "marriage" and "love" strongly. Have you ever loved somebody so strongly that you wanted to be his/hers for the rest of your life? If you dun wan to marry the person whom you are with now, it means that you dun love him/her enough or that he/she is not the one who is truly compatible with you. Why waste each other's time, heartfelt emotions and money by getting into a r/s that is doomed for failure? When self-deception is removed from your sight, when reality strikes you, that is when you will realise that you have set urself up for a horrible heartbreak. An emotional wreckage that you will remember for life. You think everybody can be like Romeo and Juliet meh? Sorry, I dun wan my life to be so tragic that it becomes the modern day, world renowned love-tragedy that it actually rivals William Shakespears' Classic: Romeo & Juliet.
